Bank of America EDD Debit Card site NOT WORKING

Half the time the site http://www.bankofamerica.com/eddcard/ does not load at all, and when it occasionally loads after putting in the login info it still tiems out with the message "The server at prepaid.bankofamerica.com is taking too long to respond."

Bank of America is famous for returning very little to the customer...High fees, fee for this,fee for that. I have always had one problem or another accessing their site. But then again is not their fault the State chose to enter into business on our behalf, with a bank with a shoddy track record.

Again the site is down. With all the unemployment, you would think someone wants the job to keep this operation working correctly! Bank of America is not of America! It is owned by foreign interests, like so much of AMERICA, USA has been sold down a river by the Government we elected to protect and serve. Vote em out!!!!

I finally got someone at B of A customer service who does not have her head up her you-know-what. She had me do the following, which actualloy worked!
Tools - internet options - advanced - reset (at bottom of window)
This was yesterday. This procedure actually worked. Today I went to the edd card address and got right in,
so I guess that fixed it. If it goes out again I'll try the same thing.

Site down, could not access for at least an hour. Still not working. Went to the local ATM. THAT was not working and it was not just me. 3 other people also trying to access their ATM account could not get in.

This is the first time it's happened to me. i had to go into the bank to get my cash advance. I'd go to a store to see if it works there but I can't spare the gas.
The bank is an a-hole, and the governemtn is an a-hole for exporting our jobs, passing Obamacare, and outright asking for a civil war.

Yes, Google Chrome. I used it and got right in. If on Internet Explorer I have the same problem as everyone else, never loads and times out. When I talked to Customer Support they really didn't answer my question about it, just helped me do what I wanted to do on the website. Oh well, at least I can use it now!!!!

All to often when i try to use BOA EDD site ~ it is down. Do you think that the site being up would in the long run get people willing to transfer their accounts? I might ~ but since I can contqact my bank easier ~~

I see the comments from August 2012 - apparently they still have not fixed the problem. I'm new to this and am frustrated that I cannot view my account. I haven't tried using the card yet and am afraid it won't work either. Has anyone found a solution??

I have not used the card at a store or anything. But I think those transactions are OK, and then you should also be able to see your balance, I would think. I had the funds transferred directly to my checking account so I wouldn't have to worry about the card and not getting the funds or knowing what I have. That works great for me. I'm not sure if it is the best way for anyone else, but it is an alternative. Again, as was posted earlier, if you are using Internet Explorer, don't use that browser for this website access. Use Google Chrome instead. That browser was already installed on my computer. When I used it, instantly I could get to the website. I still can't get to the website using Internet Explorer. It's strange!

The system is worthless. There is no way to verify deposit or balance & still the state has to pay to BofA for a non working system.
What is going on between the State & BofA?
Tried several times (weeks) & still out of commission..

Every time I try to log into my online BofA EDD account it indicates my security information is incorrect. I request a new password and it takes hours to receive via email. I call to have my password reset, log in and choose my new password, and upon new login - it indicates my security information is incorrect. I called BofA again to reset my password, and chose my new password while still on the phone with them. I logged out to try my new password and it indicated my security information is incorrect. The representative suggested I clear my internet cache and cookies - tried again - did not work. He suggested I try Internet Explorer instead of Google Chrome, tried again - did not work. I asked if any other tech support could help and he said no, BofA can only keep resetting my password and that they are working on the system since 90% of their calls are related to this issue. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. I've spent more time trying to get a hold of CA EDD and BofA EDD than bonding with my child for PFL.

I feel your pain. The exact same thing that you have been going through has been happening to me as well. I've just decided to call in every two weeks, have them reset my password, transfer all my money over to my credit union account, and then repeat the process again the following two weeks. I just look at it like this: when there are no waves, I don't get to surf. This is how it is, so better to just accept it, work with it, and get on with it, because BofA sucks! BofA always has sucked, and always will suck, and the only business I have with them is with this EDD. I won't even use their ATM's. I go out of my way to avoid having any sort of business with them. But I figure a few minutes, twice a month, f-em and just get on with it.

What is going on with Bank Of America EDD Debit Card?
I have not been able to load it on my computer for over a week, now!
I will try what Rudy above was told to do... delete cookes.. etc.
This is very annoying & frustrating since I don't know if I have had a deposit or NOT.

You can access the site using IE but you will need to change the SSL and TSL settings in internet options. See below. 1. Open IE. 2. From the tool bar go to tools then internet options. 3. Click the "Advanced" tab. 4. Scroll all the way down to security. Select USE SSL 3.0 and TSL 1.0 5. Restart IE and Wa La.
